Walls of Mind

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You flew away with an image then left to mold the clay Idols sprung from your fingertips Your worship despised in a breath Building demolished in a heartbeat The one wreck remaining was easy to reject [Chorus] And these walls I build around me They're self-imposed boundaries They protected me But were they protecting me? [Post-Chorus] I must tear down these walls of mind [Verse 2] You grow these roots you've torn up And replanted over and over You tried to possess But then you didn't know how to possess Yeah, I thought it was you who stamped me out But I see now it was me, so it's me I must forgive and you forget [Chorus] And these walls that surround me And self-imposed boundaries They protect me But they protect me [Post-Chorus] I must tear down these walls of mind Ooh [Verse 3] And you can't look at me Because the images that I reflect Are the images you must reject in order to live with yourself I thought it was you who stamped me out But I see now that it was me, so it's me I must forgive and you forget [Chorus] And these walls that I've torn down Lay dead around me Well tell me, did they really protect me? Yeah, did they protect me?
